Forums - Gaming Discussion - Chinese Xbox One Games Contain A One-Time Activation Code, Cannot Be Resold

sounds like a china thing not a ms thing



Around the Network

Sounds like they're testing the market, or taking advantage on a country that doesn't know any better. Though I'm sure piracy is a big issue there?? Also, not really a nation of people with money to splash around on new games over used

Now that's a signature!

Region-lock is no surprise for China? But with region-lock in place, a no used games policy is not needed.



Sounds to me more like a chinese government thing.
I doubt MS is to blame for this.



Praise the One.

The DReaM lives on!

Are we sure this isn't just for DLC?



Huh, that sure is a weird policy

Its china.. they better have stuff like this in effect. Those people can take a game, scrub off the print on the disc, print something else and sell it as a completely different game if given half the chance.

Give it a year, you will start seeing consoles that look inch for inch like an XB1 but is called called the X-DOX WAN. And that runs windows 8. With a skin.



Sounds like a Chinese thing?Maybe. But to me, it sounds exactly like the 2013 MS E3 press conference.

I really believe this kind of policy is needed in china or else piracy will be at an all time high for these consoles.



Praise the One.
